we do have an opportunity to talk to several people within the pentagon and what we found we were very disappointed by was that they weren't taking the steps that they really needed to take to address this problem. >> brown: is this for you an act of... is it journalism? is it art? i mean it's film making. how do you see what your doing? >> well, i guess i see myself as an artist. but as an artist i think you take on the greatest challenge you can. to put all these things together, the art, film making, journalism into one, i see it as an artistic enterprise but at the same time, of course, when you're dealing with this kind of subject, you have to be very journalistically precise which we were. but it's a challenge. i mean this film was being made actually for two audiences. one was for the film making audience. it's been very successful. it was nominated for academy award. it's won many audience awards but it was also made for policy makers in washington d.c. >> brown: you had them in mind absolutely. i remember cut by cut we'd be thinking, this will play to an audience but maybe in

that's 9% of nondefense spending and 13% of the pentagon budget over the next seven months. what's protected? medicare and social security. so are medicaid and food stamps, military personnel and the v.a. are examined. most federal agencies would make cuts and the white house warns, among other things, furloughs of the fbi, border patrol, and food safety inspections. the president says vital government services would suffer and the economy would weaken. republicans say agencies have had plenty of warning and it's past time the government joins the american families in making tough budget choices. a couple of facts amid the washington blame game. while the president rails against the cuts now, the idea for this deadline was his. two years ago the president believed the cuts would pressure republicans into a big deficit brand bargain. yes, this all may sound familiar. after all, it's been 16 years since the country had a real budget. but this president and this republican opposition are taking washington's dysfunction and trust deficit to new levels. >> john king joins me now

the pentagon could see roughly half of the reductions and that has republicans upset. >> we're going to begin to unravel the finest military in the history of the world at a time when we need it most. >> reporter: mandatory cuts in domestic spending could also hit americans hard. there could be furloughs of food safety employees, leading to a shortage of meat poultry and eggs and pushing up food prices. 50,000 tsa workers could see their hours cut back that would mean longer security lines for air travelers, and more than 350,000 people who need mental health treatment could be denied. hundreds of thousands of government workers from teachers to federal law enforcement agents are likely to be furloughed. many republicans admit the sequester isn't ideal, but they insist cuts have to be made. >> let me be very clear and i say this to the president as i say it to you, these spending cuts are going to go through on march 1st. >> reporter: the white house warns the cuts would get phased in just as the stock market is bouncing back. >> our hope is that this does not happen that, we choose
